In addition to the YHT, some regional trains also run on this route, but they operate at slower speeds, typically ranging from 80 to 120 km/h (50 to 75 mph), resulting in longer travel times and limited service frequency. The YHT trains are equipped with comfortable seating, free Wi-Fi, and dining options, aiming to enhance the overall journey for passengers. Travelers who prioritize speed and efficiency will find the YHT an ideal choice, while those with more flexible schedules may consider the regional options available.
